Surprised by Joy - The Shape of my Early Life

C.S. Lewis has captivated generations of children with his fabulous Chronicles of Narnia, seven classic stories in which magic meets reality and good triumphs over evil. But he wrote more than 30 books, most designed to inspire an adult readership, and became justly renowned as the most influential spiritual writer of his day. The C.S. Lewis Signature Classics series brings a selection of the author's most renowned books into the 21 st century for a new generation of people who seek calm and inspiration in a hectic and ever-changing world. C.S. Lewis was for many years an atheist, and in Surprised by Joy he vividly describes his spiritual quest. This autobiography of his early life focuses on the crisis of faith which was to determine the shape of his entire life and career.
